BREAKING: The US government is expected to expand the global gag rule later today, blocking funding for organisations that promote diversity, equity and inclusion #DEI and #LGBTQ+ rights – in addition to #abortion.
It could affect $30bn in foreign aid.

Unconscionable.
Trump's admin is expected to announce an unprecedented expansion of the Global Gag Rule, which blocks foreign orgs that receive U.S. funds from providing or referring abortion care in their countries—even if it's lawful & supported entirely with non-U.S. funds.

For those who watched the US Senate HELP hearing today, the attacks on settled science & decades of data made one thing clear: the evidence that mife is safe & effective is irrefutable. Anti-abortion extremists can't compete with the robust research disproving their claims.

❌ Don’t be fooled: Expect anti-abortion politicians at the hearing to stoke fear about women being forced to take mife against their will and cite these rare instances as a reason to ban it. But banning abortion pills won’t protect women or prevent coercion.

The case before the Supreme Court this morning is about far more than just sports.
"It has the potential to produce sweeping consequences—either aiding or devastating trans people’s ability to fight back in court when state laws and school rules discriminate against them."
